Two men have been charged in connection with a string of break-ins at golf courses in Manitoba and Saskatchewan.
RCMP say they came across a treasure trove of stolen items after responding to a report of a suspicious vehicle parked outside a home on Mountain Avenue in Killarney around 2 p.m. Friday.
When officers went to speak to the vehicle’s owner they say they noticed a pickup truck reported stolen from the Rossman Lake Golf and Country Club in Rossburn blocking the driveway.
An 18-year-old man from Killarney and a 23-year-old man from Deloraine were arrested later in the afternoon.
Police say they found unsecured firearm and numerous stolen items, including liquor, tools, chargers, batteries, clothes, keys to golf carts and keys to a cash register, in a search of the home.
The stolen goods are linked to break and enters reported at golf courses in Deloraine, Cartwright, Rossburn, Russell, Shoal Lake and Rocanville, Sask., police say.
